Players will have the opportunity to participate in a rotation of cardio tennis, triples, and facilitated match play.

This social event is targeted toward adult beginner players from USTA Florida’s Love to Learn or Love to Play programs up to 3.0 tennis players. All three activities will use orange and green balls for play. Players will spend 45 minutes at each station.
Cardio Tennis – a fun, group activity that features drills to give players of all abilities an ultimate, high-energy workout. Cardio Tennis will include a warm-up, cardio workout, and cool down phase.
Triples – Triples is a fast-moving, signature game that uses a format of 3 on 3, with one player at the net and two at the baseline for each team. Players will rotate positions after every point.
